So the ongoing project has been restarted after a 3 month break... no comment... and i fired the car up again and it starts and runs and isnt hunting much... the problem is that it idles at 1500 when i fire it up and then it slowly (really SLOWLY, like 30 seconds) climbs up to 2000 and i dont know if it will climb higher (i'll post a comment when i let it run longer tonight). I know 99% of you all have dealt with this, so help me go from (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif) to (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving-girl.gif)

check to make sure the vacuum hoses are connected correctly and check for vacuum leaks.
If the AAR valve is working it will start out with a 1500-1800 idle then after 5 minutes drop down to whatever you idle is set to.

To check to vacuum leaks plug the AAR valve hose so it can't leak and then you can look for other leaks.
